LiliS - SUNDAY

[ The bar is unit-colored with light unit paraphernalia, although it's all just for show. Fortunately, comfort isn't part of the unit aesthetic this time—all seats are cushioned, whether the booth seats or the bar stools, comfy and lush. Idols can sit anywhere they like, it seems.

There's alcohol available, but everything else is locked behind the wall-cabinet. . . the recipe book is also available to peruse at one's leisure.

Ah—the door opens, and a fuzzy sort of shade steps in. It looks like idols will be serving the Damned, today. . . ? ]

Would this one be... a latte? Or a milk tea or bubble tea?

Yeah, I was definitely thinking Milk Tea with Agave added to make it sweeter, or Bubble Tea with extra Milk to make it milkier...

[ 2x Milk for Extra Comfort? ]

If we added agave to milk tea, that just turns it into a bubble tea then, doesn't it?

[ How does drink math work. ]

[ Tiniest snort. ]

Yeah, I guess it's like. A semantic argument. If it's tea with two milk and one agave, is that Milk Tea with agave or Bubble Tea with more milk?

--It's a bubble milk tea then!

[ Chuckle. ]

Hey, works for me.

Hopefully they don't mind us going a bit off the menu.

Well, they didn't seem to last time.

[ Thoughtfully. ]

Admittedly, nobody's exactly ordering on menu, either. The only one who's asked for a drink by name wanted something we didn't have.

They did wander in already drunk, I'm pretty sure.

Maybe we should get them two glasses of water.

[ Muffled laughter. ]

I have no problem with that.

[ Or with giving them all an extra glass of juice, tbh. ]

Anyway, we're gonna need a bunch of milk for this one, right? With a tea base.

Mind if I give it a try?

Hit me with your best shot.

[ It takes him a bit because how is confessing your emotions different from confessing a truth or a secret, but he settles on. ]

I guess... Lilis gives me the confidence to try things I'd probably hesitate on doing myself, because I want to be able to do my best for the team. So even things like this sharing of emotions, which is a bit weird, feel comfortable because of the team.

I just hope I can be a comfort to Lilis in turn. I may not really get everything that's going on in people's lives, but if anyone on this unit needs even just a friendly shoulder to lean on, I'd happily offer mine.

Fruity and milky at the same time?

Something like...

[ Wait, check the book. ]

A pina colada or cream soda?

[ Ooo, cream soda's a good idea. ]

They did say they basically wanted to eat 'ice cream'... Could we do extra cream?

I don't see why not.

Let's go with that then.

One milk, one fruit, and one club soda, then, huh? [. . .] Something like that.

Think you can handle any of those?

[He falls silent for a few long moments.]

. . . I miss Lan Wangji [-"Lan Zhan" as he usually refers to him as] more than I thought was possible. No matter what I find here that's entertaining or exciting or amazing or wonderful, I'm always going to have a hole in me that i can't ignore. I'd give anything to see him again. I need to get the hell out of here, to graduate, already.

[His voice is quieted the whole time, not trusting himself to give much more.]

[ well shit ] [ Lupine hears enough of that to toss a sympathetic look over. He—

—...if you're up for it, he'll come find you during endgame. ]

[He's perfectly welcome to, but Wei Wuxian won't necessarily elaborate further. (Unless the truth compulsion is still in effect. . .)]

[ Who wants elaboration, Lupine just wants to let him know he's got the option to talk — and people who care.

~~But uh yeah we're still gonna be drunk so! Truth compulsion optional!~~ ]
